Consulting Project / 2020 - 2022

Mapping of climate-related natural hazards

NGI assists the municipalities in Øvre Romerike (North of Oslo) in mapping areas that will be exposed to natural hazards in the year 2070-2100 due to climate change. The goal is for the municipalities to be able to use the maps to identify vulnerable infrastructure and areas where new infrastructure should be avoided.

SENSE - CO2 storage monitoring

SENSE is a research project funded under the ERA-NET ACT programme. Its primary objective is to demonstrate reliable, cost efficient CO2 storage monitoring using ground surface deformation detection combined with geomechanical modelling and inversion to provide information on pressure distribution and hydraulic behaviour of storage sites.

SLUDGEFFECT - mitigate hazardous substances

SLUDGEFFECT is a research and innovation project to investigate and develop practical ways to mitigate the harmful presences of hazardous substances of sewage sludge and e-waste plastic within a circular economy. And thereby contribute to increase the volume of sludge and e-waste plastic that can be the reused.

SUSI - Sustainable Soil Improvement

The research project SUSI at NGI has shown that it is possible to reduce the amount of binder necessary to improve soil strength and deformation properties of sensitive clays. Results indicate that there is a lower limit to the amount of binder required. SUSI aims to define this lower limit and to quantify the environmental impact of this reduction in terms of CO2-emissions.

Under Oslo

Everything is possible below the surface, but do we always work in the best way? Under Oslo will investigate innovative methods, sustainability and economic considerations when building below the surface.

Consulting Project / 2019 - 2020

Assistance following quick clay slide

On Monday, September 16, 2019, a landslide took parts of road and other infrastructure at Li by the river Nitelva in Nittedal, near Oslo. NGI was engaged by the local authorities to assist with geotechnical expertise in this acute situation and subsequently in the efforts to secure the area so that those initially evacuated could return to their homes and workplaces.
